That line just sounds like it is getting hemmed in or getting into penalty trouble. Granted the 4th line is already like that so...If you can't beat em, punish em. Opposing defenders will not have a good time playing against a Goodrow-Kunin-Sabourin line.
If Sabourin plays, he'll get like 3 min of ice time. so addition by subtraction really.That line just sounds like it is getting hemmed in or getting into penalty trouble. Granted the 4th line is already like that so...
So then the Sharks are helping the Barracuda make the playoffs and have as good a season as possible. lolIf Sabourin plays, he'll get like 3 min of ice time. so addition by subtraction really.
Opposing teams will laugh themselves silly seeing those three try and connect a pass together.If you can't beat em, punish em. Opposing defenders will not have a good time playing against a Goodrow-Kunin-Sabourin line.
Who cares about connecting a pass? I just want them to hurt opposing players.Opposing teams will laugh themselves silly seeing those three try and connect a pass together.
Imagine being a defenseman on a 2-on-1 all tense and ready to make a play until you notice it's Goodrow and Sabourin. I would literally die of laughter right there on the ice.
One of those guys in the lineup is fine. Three is malpractice.
Can't hit them if you can't catch them.Who cares about connecting a pass? I just want them to hurt opposing players.
Some of you have absurd ideas about what a 4th line should look like on a rebuilding team.
We don't have Kevin Stenlund and it makes no sense to give up assets to get a player like that so we claimed Duehr and called up Sabourin for some much needed size and physicality. It's not like anyone else on the Barracuda deserves to be called up anyway, especially since our top six should be set in stone right now.Can't hit them if you can't catch them.
I believe in having a hard-nosed, grinding 4th line. I also believe in those 4th liners being real NHLers. Kevin Stenlund is everything you described and also is a very solid hockey player. You can't just toss three big dudes out there can call it a fourth line.
Hell, Kunin and Goodrow aren't even very big.
It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.Hell, Kunin and Goodrow aren't even very big.
